Like conventional medicine, chiropractic is based upon scientific principles of diagnosis through testing and empirical observations. Treatment is based upon the practitioner's rigorous training and clinical experience. Unlike conventional medicine, which focuses on attempting to treat disease once it occurs, chiropractic attempts to improve the health of the individual in an effort to avoid illness in the first place. Most people would rather be healthy and avoid illness, if they could. This is one of the main reasons for the big upsurge in the popularity of chiropractic. People are recognizing the benefit of seeking an alternative to traditional medicine; one that will help them achieve and maintain optimal health.

What truly differentiates doctors of chiropractic from any other healthcare professionals is the fact that chiropractors are the only professionals who are trained to diagnose and treat what are called spinal subluxations. The word 'subluxation' comes from the Latin words meaning 'to dislocate' (luxare) and 'somewhat or slightly' (sub). So the term 'vertebral subluxation' literally means a slight dislocation (misalignment) of the bones in the spine. Although this term was adequate in the 1800s when much was still misunderstood about the human body, today the word 'subluxation' has changed in meaning to capture the complex of neurological, structural, and functional changes that occur when a bone is 'out of place.' For this reason chiropractors usually refer to subluxations of the spine as the "Vertebral Subluxation Complex", or "VSC" for short.

The chiropractic approach to healthcare is holistic, meaning that it addresses your overall health. It recognizes that many lifestyle factors such as exercise, diet, rest, and environment impact your health. For this reason, chiropractors recommend changes in lifestyle' eating, exercise, and sleeping habits in addition to chiropractic care.

Chiropractic is so much more than simply a means of relieving pain. Ultimately, the goal of the chiropractic treatment is to restore the body to its natural state of optimal health. Since the body has a remarkable ability to heal itself and to maintain its own health, the primary focus is simply to remove those things which interfere with the body's normal healing ability.

Testimonials

Reviews By Our Satisfied Patients

  • "Last summer I suffered an injury that kept me from my profession. I am a horse trainer and compete professionally as a barrel racer. Dr. Myron, began working on me immediately following the injury. He was amazing in his knowledge of whole body health that within a short time I was back to competing and because of his thorough care from suggestions of stretching, ice and other remedies I am back to the top of my game and free of pain. I felt he thought outside the box to do what was in my best interest!

    I highly recommend Dr. Myron Gudmundson."

  • "As a new mama, my body is regaining it's 'normal-ness' and Dr Myron has been essential toward getting me back feeling like myself again. He's super attentive, professional, and delivers the most thorough adjustments I've ever had in my 14 + years of receiving chiropractic care. I'd HIGHLY recommend Woodinville Chiropractic and Dr. Myron to anyone wanting chiropractic care!"
